belly Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 Dave, i've given up hope mate, I'm following you from now on. My 20 notes tmrw is following the same path. Fecking useless. First time ever I've not been able to do the bookies out of some money in the big tournie's in many a year. Well that last nights winnings on a risky treble, Will reveal all on Wednesday night when they don't come in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonights games are 2 games that really could go any way. The Turks are pretty good when fired up, and the Czechs technically (imo) are better than them. The portugese won't be fielding their strongest 11 if they have any sense as it's a meaningless match for both them and the Swiss. Very difficult ones to call.

The Old Tolbooth Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I was counting the candy when Turkey equalised near the end there, the buggers weren't supposed to go on and win it tho ha ha!! Cracking entertainment that match, it had everything! As for tonights games, I don't see any real value in betting on either of them to be honest but if I had to pick one, then I'd probably opt for Poland to edge out Croatia as they have already qualified and the Poles need a win. I can't see the Austrians troubling the Germans too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Czecks half time, Turks full-time 25-1!!! Dancer. Not sure how I'll go about handing Mr Hills his money back tonight. Definately fancy the Germans to beat a very poor Austria an ensure qualification. Not sure about the other game though, Poland have looked awful but the Croatian squad is pretty thin and they're resting their best players so it's a tricky one...

Nice one mate, you win some you lose some. I didn't see any value in backing any of the teams tonight so I backed Podolski to be first goal scorer in the Germany game, and Smolarek to do the same in the Polish game.

sked21 Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Not had much success over the tournament even though I have done at least two scorecasts for every game, four top scorer/tournament winners (Not one of the guys I have backed has scored yet) and numerous other bets. I seen Ladbrokes were offering 5 x ?5 bets if you opened an account and staked a ?10 single. So stuck it on France to beat Romania (BOLLOCKS). But won ?34.98 on my first free bet (Only win so far). If Germany win tonight then the Czech's have cost me ?45 and Italians a similar amount. My dad had ?2 on Ibrahimovic to score first and Sweden to beat Greece 2-0 at 45/1. But also ?2 on Mutu 2-1 against Italy at 100/1. Spewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppercrutch Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Taking aside what happens in the Holland game 20-1 odds for Italy seems mighty high. If they beat France and Holland do Romania they are back in it big style. Been playing pretty well so far IMO, just cant get the ball in the net !! Ouch. I now have ?20 on Italy at 12-1 and ?50 on them at 21-1. And those bookies are never wrong are they. *******s.... Slap it all on the Italians !!! I have a funny feeling that bounce of Buffons foot last night was their turning point. Probably not though seeing as I have money on it !! Not a chance, UEFA have already said that Holland can field a second string against Romania because it means they are using squad rotation well. The Romanians are 10/11 faves for their game against Holland reserves, which if they won would knock out both France and Italy and give them an easier route to the final. I don't bet very often. But when I do I put big money on and generally choose something that few other people do. I do however have a knack of getting it almost right. But not quite. Still I think I have a pretty good chance. 21-1 for Italy when they still have a chance. You'd have to be MENTAL not to put some cash on that.. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think maybe the Dutch just didn't want to stop their momentum ? I do agree they look awesome. However they do that quite often. Italy now play Spain in the Quarters. A few important players out but Spain - Quarters. I would always go for the pizza munchers !! I think Holland are looking great now, especially seen as I've just won ?250 on them. Nice one.

Say What Again Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Any of you guys give me a bit of advice on a bet I placed tonight. After withdrawing ?90 from my account on Monday (Karlsson e/w), I still had ?12.50 in my account today. I had ?10 on Italy (-1) @ 4/1 (that's been paid out. I have ?50 in my account just now) With the remaining ?2.50, I bet Del Peiro 1st goal and 2-0 Italy scorecast. Del Peiro didn't play and Italy won 2-0. Maybe in hope I thought I'd get paid out on a 2-0 single (?2.50). I certainly thought at least I'd get my money back. Nowt. I've got my ?50 and that's it. Is that right? I'm going to bed so will get any advice in the morning. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
